Apple has finally announced the iPhone event date, September 9. According to rumors, the company may announce hardware including the new iPhone 16 series, a new Apple Watch (or Watches if the new Ultra is accompanying), and new Apple AirPods.
The tagline for the event is “It’s Glowtime,” which could be a reference to Apple intelligence. The upcoming iPhone 16 series will be Apple’s first series to feature out-of-the-box artificial intelligence.

Apple is also set to launch a number of artificial intelligence tools called Apple Intelligence, which the company highlighted during the Worldwide Developers Conference in June.
iPhone 16 Series Unveiling
Apart from the iPhone series, Apple is expected to make several announcements, including new Apple Watch models and new AirPods. The company will also finally reveal the availability dates of iOS 18 and other latest software updates.
Based on rumours, the new iPhone series will include four models – iPhone 16, iPhone 16 Plus, iPhone 16 Pro, and iPhone 16 Pro Max. This year, the company is expected to introduce an action button on all its models, replacing the iconic alert slider on basic iPhones for the first time. Last year, the action button was introduced on the Pro models.
The biggest talk of the town is Apple Intelligence, the company’s new move to promote AI through its latest-gen hardware. Apple teased iOS 18 at WWDC, but we can expect the company to share more details at the September 9 event.
